all I was trying to make clear to you was that you can indeed have an elected parliament and at the same time have a monarchy. Examples are in abundance. But it seems your brain is not even able to grasp this fact.
I have done you a favour and gone to the kid next door as you requested ( I knew that a more elaborate explanation would only have confused your little brain anyway). According to his dictionary:
Federalism is a system of government in which several states unite, usually for foreign policy, etc, but retain considerable control over their own internal affairs;
Feudalism is a system under which people receive land and protection from the landowner and work & fight for him in return.
According to you, this may be one and the same thing, but it isn't so to most people.
Now can you answer my question about what resources you are going to generate your income from.

Kasangwawo
Do your self a favour, go and borrow a dictionary from a kid next to you block and look for these two words. Federalism and feudalism. Then get back to me after.
